Very rewarding activity and hobby. So so many birds all around us, we just have to look a little closer! This is the adorable dark-eyed junco.

How would you recommend getting into it? I love the idea of identifying fungi down below and birds up top on a hike.

@CHARLOTTE Just get some cheap binoculars and a bird guide! I recommend the Bushnell Powerviews, and the Peterson Guide.

@CHARLOTTE I recommend the Merlin Bird ID App! It helps identify birds by their calls.

@CHARLOTTE I'm still an amateur birder but definitely see if there is a local birding society/chapter in your area. The folks there are so friendly and supportive. They LOVE newcomers.

I feel like birding is becoming popular with a younger subset and for me it’s about connecting with what’s around me and being delighted by simple, practical knowledge. my goal right now is to figure out which ones are serenading me when I go to work each morning! pictured are Eurasian collared doves I identified the other day 🐦

i absolutely adore looking at people's handwriting, legible or not. i love neat script and i love chicken scratch. it is personal and intimate because it's your own but also something you picked up along the way from all those around you! the ways i've written f's, g's, a's, and so on have changed over time from observing other people's neat ways to write them. it is so beautiful to be able to recognize someone's handwriting tbh bc it means handwriting holds so much personality. if it's hard to read, i don't care. i'll ask you what it says. i'll pick up the nuances of your handwritten alphabet.

the frenzy of it all, to be tardy by just a few seconds. a shared oopsy shrug. a room full of laughter and love for the new year anyway. ringing up a friend, kissing loved ones on their cheeks. first hugs of the year. two flutes of champagne. scattered fireworks in the neighborhood. no frown on anybody's faces. tonight, everything is warm and hopeful and light. we are so lucky to have this new day, this new life. wishing you all a beautiful and kind 2025.
